I was in one of those unky moods last night and I went to drop Brett's birthday gift off (I got him 'Bully' because I am awesome) and I don't know, I just started crying on the way over there and then I get to the apartment and see him and I just start bawling. I have no idea why. I mean, there are little things that have been getting to me lately but just BOOM! And of course boys don't like tears and he's telling me to breath and Evan's handing me both the Kleenex box and Tequila (the cat, not the drink) at various points in the evening to make me feel better but I just didn't know what was wrong with me. I guess lately I've just spent so much time not caring or feeling much of anything that the suddenly crying for no apparent reason freaked me out a little. But never fear, hanging out with Brett and Evan for a few hours can pretty much put any one in a good mood because regardless of the fact that they're both jerkfaces sometimes, they can make me laugh no matter what. So Brett and I eventually go on an impromptu trip to Wal-Mart because he needs some video game guide and we're just kind of dicking around for a while, then we watch some tv/movies when we get back and Evan of course is drinking because that's what Evan does. Finally Brett goes to sleep and Evan and I just talked about all sorts of random shit - some serious, some not - for the ensuing three hours or so. I fell asleep on that darn love seat that's too small for me and finally woke up in time to realize, "Hey dummy, you have a doctor's appointment at 9:30, go home." We talked a few minutes longer and I finally left and let me tell you, the Planned Parenthood lobby is not the most fun place to be sitting at 9:15 on a Thursday morning going on very little sleep, which I know is my own fault, but whatevs. Then this nurse is taking my blood pressure and the first time she gets an error message so she redoes it right away (you're supposed to wait at least five minutes before you re-test but she didn't) and she gets this insane reading like, 151/129.
I know, right?
So the doctor comes in, who was way awesome, and she retests it again and of course it is normal, whew. Everything else is too, which I doubt you are wondering because who wants to think about that? Ew.
Anyway, I still don't know what was making me feel so shitty yesterday just a combination of a lot of things but you know Brett can always make me laugh about something and Evan turned out to be quite a good listener with interesting and relevant stories of his own, so to quote from one of my most favorite episodes of Buffy ever, 'The Prom'...
Buffy: Every now and then, people surprise you.
Giles: Every now and then.
